Superintendent, Los Alamos Public Schools
Dear Staff, Parents and Families,
The tragic death of George Floyd and the events that have unfolded are a heartbreaking reminder of the deep-rooted systemic racism and polarization in our country.
We have struggled to find words to express our grief as our hearts ache for the families of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery and countless others. We also grieve for all those who may have seen a reflection of their own life experience in that traumatic video footage.

Snyder: 1942 Wind Storm Recalled By Ranch School Students
Los Alamos Historical Society
